JCI Members Show Interest in New Cards

JCI President Rector's new "Partner in Action" wallet-size cards were a popular item during his recent eight-day tour of Asia. Rector has handed out the cards to Members that allow him to shake their hands and thank them for working with him as Partners for JCI Action in 2003. Rector has already distributed about 500 of the cards.
The cards are individually numbered in the upper left-hand corner. Rector presented card number 001 on January 10 to United States Junior Chamber President Michael Faller in Tulsa, Oklahoma. On the back of the cards, you find answers to frequently asked questions about JCI.

The cards have a three-fold purpose. First, President Rector wants to use them as an incentive to encourage Members to meet him and share ideas. Second, the cards are designed to recognize and emphasize the important role that individual JCI Members play in shaping the future of the organization. Third, the information on the back of the cards is intended to provide "talking points" to local Members so that they answer questions from prospective Members, media and corporate patrons in a similar way around the world.
